And I said, that's when, when I woke up in the mornin'
That's when it was sunny or stormin'
Laughin' when I was cryin'
And that's when you were waitin' at the front gate
That's when, when I saw your face
You let me in, and baby that's when
-Taylor Swift (thats when, Taylor's version)

Lev Night

30 January

waking up next to Karlissa on my birthday is one of the best feelings. I haven't stopped smiling since I have opened my eyes this morning. she was sleeping in as usual so I decided that I should get ready.

I was making us breakfast when she walked out of my room in her Taylor swift pajamas. as I have seen some of Taylor's music videos I know that those pajamas were from the 'you belong with me music video

"good morning" I smile. she grumbles a response and comes to sit on the counter table with her head on her forearms

"I am supposed to be the one making you breakfast, it's your birthday" she whines and stands up to take over but she stands up too fast and massages her head

"it's fine. and if you don't feel well I have some painkillers" I offer. she shakes her head

"nuh I am just jetlagged" she then shakes her head and puts on a smile and looks at me

"Enough about me, so what do you have planned for today big boy?" she asks. she winces a little in pain but masks it.

"well, my parents are throwing me a party" I sigh. she booed the idea and I laugh in agreement.

"so you are gonna spend your birthday talking about business and how the economy is going down and.....other things businessmen talk about" she scrunched her nose

"I don't have a choice. but I think it would be better if I have my awesome girlfriend with me there" I cross the counter and peck her lips. she smiles

"if that is your way of asking me on a date, then yes I will go with you" I grin from ear to ear.

"I need to call Aiza to ask her if I can borrow a dress from her," she says and starts looking around the room for her phone

"or- we could go and buy you one" I suggest. she shakes her head

"I'm not letting you buy me a present on your birthday. especially when I didn't get you anything"

I look at her and she was avoiding my eyes with guilt.

"I'm sorry but I was too busy with school and mom was being a handful, then Delilah got in a fight with Niall so I was with her-" she rambles
